When Moroccanoil® Brand Ambassador Vasile Guzu (@guzzu.hairdresser) set out to transform an old balayage, the goal was clear: create a vibrant copper shade with depth, warmth and shine—without using lightner. The result? A rich, dimensional color with high-impact gloss and a silky, healthy finish.
Vasile used Moroccanoil’s Color Rhapsody Permanent Cream Color to build brightness and uniformity from root to end, carefully adjusting developer strength across different zones to preserve integrity and deliver even, radiant coverage. Read on for his full formula and application breakdown.
